Claims Analysis, Management Helps Minimize Cost Drivers

Integral to K&B Underwriters’ values-based risk management solutions is taking a proactive, responsive approach to claims analysis and management. This helps us pinpoint where and why losses are occurring, minimize the exposures causing these losses and implement procedures to manage claims.
